Hello. I am trying to figure this out. When I create texture maps for my models, I USUALLY use Save As and give it a 8-10 quality level. With this option, the size of the file is QUITE big, or maybe medium file size I should say.

Now, I saved the SAME Texture Map with Save For Web Option, and gave me bout half the size of Save As Option. (which is good for me, lol as I am trying to lower the file size).

I brought the model into Bryce and did a side by side render with both texture files (Save As and Save For Web). I did not see a difference, but I wanted to ask U all bout it.

 

Does it make a difference when U save for web VS Save As? I am talkin bout render and quality wise, not file size. I know file size (Save For Web) will always be smaller, but I want quality.

Thank you for your time and help on this.

THANK YOU...
